How about some music........

[oldbroad]

Kay, just love all the music you post. You really do rock! All of my new REOfam are playing some great tunes...Please keep 'em coming!

Dire Straits - "Sultans Of Swing"

Thanks becky! The King got me started whe n I was about 12 and I haven't looked back, but good ole rock n roll and blues are my favorites.

( it also gets my motor running for dreaded house cleaning!...I'd much rather play outside in the dirt!)

 

[Rellen13]

Nice accoustic version of this song, and seeing as we've got some more weather coming in:



And they are "REO" Speedwagon after all.

I couldn't stand him or his group back when they were young, but he sure did belt it out then! I'm blessed to have three boxed sets of Doo wop shows and i consider them priceless!

 

[Rictic]

An often overlooked Pixies song. One of my favorites (including all their better known songs).

 

[Della Cirque]

Still lovin' the 80's

 

[ancient puffer]

Fresh cup of coffee, REO with a fresh atty, 6 inches of snow on the ground, and Leo Kottke. Priceless!

 

[SavePaperVapor]

Great tune. Just like most any other song with a harmonica solo.

 

[Crimzen Eyez]

I dig Mr Petty,it helps me unwind.

 

[beckyblue]

Great tune. Just like most any other song with a harmonica solo.

Okay, how do I like this a million times? I try not to post the more lo-fi stuff I love on this thread, as I think probably folks are looking to hear stuff that will get/keep them going on long days; but I love that you posted this, and I'm thrilled to know another Hayden lover on this forum!

I'm gonna give myself a little more leeway to post a bit of the lo-fi songs that I adore, but here's a classic upbeat one. Also, I know we have a lot of action flick aficionados, so -

REM -"It's The End Of The World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)

 

[unsure]

I think of few of us qualify as strange..

Every song you guys post reminds me of a dozen others I love, but I'll refrain from posting too often, as I have been known to push "my" playlist at times (To be fair, it is usually combined with copious imbibing of adult beverages). Besides, you guys are doing great without me, and some find my eclectic taste in music "weird" (I am the only person I know who likes Dread Zeppelin). I was brought up listening to jazz and classical, remember when the Beatles put out new songs on the radio (on AM stations! FM was just for talk radio!), and have heartily embraced the advents of Punk, New Wave, Stadium Rock, Heavy Metal, Jam Bands, the re-births of Hilly-Billy and folk music, and I've had a continuing love affair with the Blues. Last year I saw The Hives, Phish, and the Tedeschi-Trucks Band live, and the Tedeschi-Trucks band was at the Newport Jazz Fest. Got tickets to see Muse in April (My 10 year old is psyched!). So if I post something that makes you go "Huh? What was that?", you've been warned.

What's your favorite Beatles song and why?



Because of the energy. And it's Punk Rock before there was a Punk Rock.

Never worry about post too often on this thread. If we like it we will play it and if we don't we won't, I had to bring this thread from the depths so lets keep it alive.

Love the blues, especially when my "next husband" is singin em

 

[beckyblue]

+1 on Clapton, of course!! Rellen13...naming a favorite Beatles song?!? That's like demanding that a mom pick her favorite child. %100 impossible! But one of WAY too many great ones to even comprehend -

 

[Della Cirque]

What's your favorite Beatles song and why?

Because I learned how to fly

 

[oldbroad]

Love the blues, especially when my "next husband" is singin em

I wonder who that could possibly be?!

 

[beckyblue]

Because I learned how to fly

that song and so overjoyed for my fellow tattooed squonker, Jen, for being able to relate to it!!
